Whew! I was so down last Tuesday (October 8, 2013), I only have Php170 inside my wallet and I am bound to go home. After reaching the LRT Avenida Station, I remembered that I have raffle tickets from the Casino Filipino, Ronquillo Branch so I decided to stay for while. At exactly 7:45 p.m. I went to the 3rd Floor of the Ronquillo Arcade where the raffle was being held.
I have been praying all along. At 8:00 p.m. the first name was called, a senior citizen went to the stage and wheeled-in a roulette, he won a Php10,000 worth of pre-bet coupons. I knew all along that only 3 lucky patrons will be called so I continued to hum my request, "Please Lord, please... call my name..." and the second name was uttered. My name was called!
I again prayed that I get Php100,000 worth of pre-bet coupons I adjusted the arrow and pointed it to ten times (10 x Php10,000) wishing that I could get the highest prize. Unfortunately, God did not grant my request. I only got Php90,000! Yeheey! Thank you Lord.
A new dilemma arose, I am not good at gambling and I might lose all the 9 pre-bet coupons without winning any of them. Luckily, a man offered me to buy all my coupons at 40% cost. I was now caught between GOOD and BETTER (lol). I called my wife for a decision and suggestion but she came in late. I have sold all 8 coupons for Php32,000 and retain only 1 so that I could play thinking that I would win it at a cost. Sadly, I lost that bet after I played it. I told you, I am not good at gambling. My wife told me that I should have sold it all. What a missed opportunity.
Anyway, I went home Php32000 richer and was able to immediately pay my bills. I would like to thank Casino Filipino for the opportunity and of course my friend up there for making impossible thing POSSIBLE!

Lucky Me!
Guys, you may not believe it!
I was on my way out at Watson's, after buying some vitamins and medical stuff, located at SM San Lazaro Branch, Manila when, suddenly, I was blocked by this beautiful saleslady who offered me to buy Rexona products. She was so inviting so I indulged to buy (sorry I forgot to ask her name). I didn't know that there were some perks after buying that thing.
Here was the catch. That saleslady made me stood about 4 steps from the cabinet purposely-prepared for Rexona's promo. She instructed me to throw a ball at a 9-hole mold and I unintentionally made a shot at the right corner hole. Then the saleslady shouted, "Oh man, you got the iPod!" I shouted back "What?" She handed me the ball I used then asked me to shoot again. So I tried very hard to put the ball in the hole I shot earlier, but I missed. I got the lowest hole at the right corner instead. I was told that I got a key chain. I was waiting for further instructions when the saleslady, after searching at the room near the cashier's place, told me that her manager was not there so I could pick the iPod nano tomorrow (actually it is today). She made me sign a receipt and asked me to return at 1 p.m.
I believe I am so blessed because God made me a shot I didn't know what's at stake. Need I say more?
